[gentoo-amd64] ripping problem with mencoder

[Mark Haney]

Well I have mencoder working, sort of.  I'm using this command (ripped
almost verbatim off the Gentoo-Wiki):

mencoder dvd://2 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4 -oac mp3lame -o
dvdvideo.avi

But when I run that I get video but no audio.  During the encoding I get
this in the output:

==========================================================================
Requested audio codec family [a52] (afm=liba52) not available.
Enable it at compilation.
Requested audio codec family [ac3] (afm=libac3) not available.
Enable it at compilation.
Requested audio codec family [hwac3] (afm=hwac3) not available.
Enable it at compilation.
Cannot find codec for audio format 0x2000.
Read DOCS/HTML/en/codecs.html!

But I know lame is on my system and working, I encode audio to MP3
format all the time.  Anyone have any idea?

It looks to me like you can't decode the AC3 audio to encode to mp3
with lame.  Try adding the a52 use flag and re-emerge.
